Nora - 5/18/2018

Nora ate oatmeal and two servings of baked cinnamon apples.  For lunch she ate a large serving of hamburger stew with meat, carrots, green beans, tomatoes, and hash browns.  She had a bite of whole wheat dinner roll and ate a large serving of apricots.  At breakfast Hudson was quizzing me about why Avilene, Svea, and Atley are gone today.  It was hard to have a conversation with him as Nora's voice was loudly proclaiming; "Nor Nor here!  Nor Nor here!  Nor Nor here!!"  Haha!

At breakfast Nora noticed I was blowing on my food and she said, "hot, hot, hot."  Yup, good observation Nora.  Also, I want to mention something Nora said while waving (or looking out the window) at Daddy this morning.  Don't you wonder what the 2 year olds are thinking!?  I do and that's one reason I love it when they start saying words.  They NEVER think what I think they might be thinking - and that's because they don't think like adults!!  (There you go - a free tidbit for the day!) They always surprise me and I've been doing this work for a LONG time!  Ha!  Nora was watching Daddy drive away and she said, "white, white, white."  LOL!  Yup, he's driving a white car.  She is pretty obsessed with colors right now isn't she!?!

This week Kenzie and Riley have been catching Roly Poly Bugs and I've posted a picture yesterday and again today on Hudson's Blog of their fascination with the bugs.  Nora doesn't really seem to care, but I'm going to Post a memory that you might like.  Lauralea and I were talking last night about a little boy (about to graduate from high school) who was probably around Linnea's age (10 months) and just like Linnea he would put everything on the patio in his mouth!!  We found 5, yes 5, Roly Poly Bugs in his mouth one day!  Lauralea was gagging and just about puked!!

Here are some pictures from this morning's activities.  I like the 2nd picture - only these 3 kids here today and they're in a pretty tight circle!  :)  3rd picture; doing some selfies!  Last picture; Nora upside down watching Hudson and Linnea disappear under the balance beam.

Nora ate oatmeal and two servings of baked cinnamon apples for breakfast. For lunch she ate a large serving of hamburger stew with meat, carrots, green beans, tomatoes, potatoes, and onions. She ate whole wheat dinner roll and two servings of fruit cocktail.    Just in case anyone was wondering how many; this is the last of 836 Blogs for our sweet Nora. It's been such a joy for me to have Nora in my Program for all this time and I'm also thankful when she returned during the crazy covid time. I'm glad Miles will be here for another year which means I get to see Nora occasionally. I sure love all my Hansen family!! You guys are awesome. Here's a classic Nora comment from yesterday. The 3 oldest girls were at the table doing some Art. There was a clean piece of paper which had some paint or marker on the very top of it. And now no one will use it as they all consider it "ruined!!" Haha. Who did this? The denial was 100%. Nora said, "Gary, we all didn't...

Breakfast: French toast and plums. Avi said, "Not eating!" Ha. Ok, then Atley and Nora both followed suit! "Not eating!" Ha. I bet you guys will eat a big lunch and they did. Nora ate two servings of pulled pork, ate whole wheat toast, ate peas, and three servings of cantaloupe.    Nora; "I'm SO excited to start Kindergarten!!" Boy I've been hearing that phrase a lot lately and it is exciting!! What are you most excited about? Nora said, "I get to wear my mask." LOL That was SO cute. I laughed so hard. We could use her for a poster encouraging people to wear masks!! First picture; Yup, Nora's back in the house!! First things first; Get these fellas all lined up, organized, and ready to go!! Ha. She'd been here for maybe 5 minutes! Next picture: Nora said; "Gary! You got new markers!!" And that's true. So here's what I've finally  (ha - now that I'm close to retiring) learned about buying the large boxes o...

Nora ate blueberry bagel and two servings of grapes for breakfast. For lunch she ate shrimp, two servings of brown rice in berry juice, ate broccoli, and marion black berries.  At the meal table Nora saw a picture of Svea in the early years (ha) and said, "Look at you Svea! You were SO cute." Svea asked Nora, "Did you like me when I was that age?" What a super sweet conversation from both sides. Love it so much! This is kind of random, but in case anyone was wondering; I stopped doing the Spanish color words for the kids because - after listening to Alexa and Siri - I wasn't getting them correct and I didn't want the kids to have to unlearn and then relearn at Paxon. :)  First picture; Nora was building a tower with these little wooden blocks and you can see the "source of her supply." That would be Miles' hand. Haha. Later when Nora was done here Atley knocked this tower over and Nora said, "I wanted to knock it over." But Nora actua...
